Holdin’ On To Something

There's a little girl, wanna make her mine
What she wants, I don't know
An' if red means stop, an' green means go
Her light is always yellow, I'm wrapped around her finger
She's slipping thro' my hands
Every time I think I got her 'cos I gotta think again

I'm holding on to something
That keeps letting me go
Just a whole lotta heartache
At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder everytime I drop
But I keep reaching 'cos I can't stop
Holding on to something
That keeps letting me go

She calls me on the phone
Says she's all alone
Felling kinda lonely
Says she can't wait
So don't be late
I promise her I won't be
Ten minutes later, I'm standing at her door
She's saying, "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore"

An' I'm holding on to something
That keeps letting me go
Just a whole lotta heartache
At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder everytime I drop
But I keep reaching 'cos I can't stop
Holding on to something
That keeps letting me go

I fall a little harder everytime I drop
But I keep reaching 'cos I can't stop
Holding on to something
That keeps letting me go

Just a whole lotta heartache
At the end of my rope
Holding on to something
That keeps letting me go
